Imagine, if you will, a bombed PSD thundering along in front of a sled when, horror of horrors, the rear u-joint grenades. What do you think that suddenly freed drive-shaft might do with 300+ rwhp on the other end trying to make it spin?

What doo you think would happen if the front u-joint or yoke went?

I have seen cement trucks catapulted by a lose driveshaft in the front. Or come through the floorboard.

I've heard stories about cars being catapulted. Never heard one about a cement truck. Somehow, I don't imagine a driveshaft is going to lift the rear of the truck very much when it's hooked to the sled.

Why can't you go over 100mph with it? what rpm did they balance it to? I had mine balanced at over 5k.
